🌐 SUN 6/22 at 10 AM ONLINE PHOTOGRAPHY CRITIQUE PROGRAM

Online event

The Hungarian-born André Kertész wasn’t always regarded as one of the most important photographers of the 20th century. Revered for his advancements in photojournalism, the photo essay and composition, Kertesz was largely unknown in the art community, save the belated attention he received in the ‘60s, and again in the ‘80s.

Perhaps he’s best known for his sensitive images of the everyday. And though he considered himself a realist and documentarian, he was informally associated with the surrealist movement, and also leant on the teachings of cubism.

Freud once said reality is that which ‘gets in the way’ — that which disrupts or shackles our fantasies and dreams. In the case of photo realism, it’s argued what is considered ‘real’ in photography isn’t just formal technique or objective style.

This take on realism defined Kertész early on in his career as one of the founders of photojournalism. As a young man he photographed Hungarian peasants on the streets, pioneering the use of a small camera. His snapshots reveal moments, or surprises, in every day life. He was a mentor to Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa and Brassai — a look at their oeuvres hark back to Kertész.
This is a continuation in our series of special presentations and high-level
educational programming. Our goal is to further enhance your interest and knowledge on your journey as a creative and artistic photographer.

**Details about the exhibit and the various artists**

*Glasstress* is a project from the Berengo Studio in Murano, Italy, that brings major international artists, many of whom have never worked in glass, to Venice to collaborate with its glass masters. These experts are challenged to rise to the technical challenges that artists at the forefront of contemporary art present and expand beyond their centuries-old techniques. The result is innovative, dramatic artworks
It includes over twenty works by globally celebrated artists. Irish artist **Sean Scully**, known for lush abstract paintings, Another colorful installation of multiple glass urns by German artist **Thomas Schütte**, whose work is the subject of a current retrospective at New York's Museum of Modern Art.
Afro-Cuban **MacArthur Fellow María Magdalena Campos-Pons's** contribution to the exhibition is a mobile of abstracted butterflies dedicated to the memory of Breonna Taylor. **Laure Prouvost**, winner of the prestigious Turner Prize, represented France in the 2019 Venice Biennale and has since collaborated regularly with the masters in Murano. She contributes a nature-focused installation to this exhibition. **Russian artist Anna Jermolaewa** made work at the Berengo Studio for her exhibition representing Austria in the 2024 Venice Biennale.
As a special feature of this iteration of *Glasstress*, the Boca Raton Museum of Art has commissioned **Florida artist Jose Alvarez** (D.O.P.A) to create his first work in glass with Berengo’s glass experts especially for this exhibition. It is a radiantly colored mirror, titled *Echoes of Silence in the Galactic Garden*, featuring complex floral patterns and spectacular gold embellishments.
